News summary

The 2024 World Robot Conference in Beijing highlighted China's advancements in humanoid robots, showcasing innovative, cost-effective technologies such as Wisson Technology's flexible robotic manipulators, which use 3D-printed plastics and pneumatic artificial muscles. These manipulators are priced at about 10,000 yuan ($1,404), significantly lower than traditional robotic arms, and have potential applications in humanoid robots. However, industry leaders like Yi Gang from Ti5 Robot raised concerns about product reliability and supply chain issues, particularly with harmonic gears essential for motion control. The conference also featured a record 27 humanoid models demonstrating practical applications, from cash management to kitchen tasks. Experts predict that the commercialization of these technologies will accelerate, likening future accessibility to that of smartphones. Premier Li Qiang underscored the importance of robotics in China's technological growth, advocating for enhancements in supply chain stability and broader adoption across various sectors.
